I think we can say we know Thailand quite well having traveled here for 3 months all of our trips together. We were super surprised by both the accommodation, host and the neighborhood. The area is very authentic and the prices represent that as well. If you like food you won't even have to leave the street. There are many good restaurants for such low prices. If you want to go to the center then you can take the sky train. The daily night (food) market is really nice as well. But let's move on to the accommodation, because it is NICE! It has a nice garden, it's spotless, the beds sleep well (that says a lot in SE Asia), Tep has a café in-house (and he serves great (ice) coffee and tea) and you will have access to a lovely kitchen. On top of that, Tep really puts a lot of effort in trying to make your stay a good one. HIGHLY recommended! (I have it in my favorites list already)
